The subjects are drawn from the ancient Monuments of Alexandria, Memphis, the Pyramids, Thebes, &c. and were selected from some of those considered the most illustrative of the Chronological history and mythology of Egypt. It is a singularly curious and interesting work, and the impression very limited. 2658 CHAMPOLLION LE JEUNE, Précis du Système Hiéroglyphique des anciens Egyptiens, 2 vols. 8vo. 47 plates, bds. 10s 2659 2660 the same, 8vo. cloth, 12s 1824 Paris, 1824 Lettres du Duc de Blacas: PLANCHES, 4to. 14 plates, 2s 6d 1826 2661 DRUMMOND, Memoire sur l'Antiquité des Zodaiques d'Esneh et de Denderah, traduction de l'Anglais, 8vo. plates, hf. bd. uncut, 6s Paris, 1822 2662 EGYPTIAN SOCIETY, Cairo.

"Indefatigable in research, full of learning, accurate in facts, and logical in the application of his facts and his learning, Sir Gardner Wilkinson has at the same time treated his subject with the enthusiasm of Genius and the liveliness of Poetry. He opens to you the Temple of their Deities, the Palace of their Sovereigns, the Fields of Battle, and the Repositories of their Dead. He traces for you their early history; he exhibits to you their knowledge of the Arts and Sciences, the course of their Husbandry, and the process of their Manufactures; and he introduces you to their private life, with a graphic vivacity which makes you at once a judge of the virtues and vices of the Egyptian character, and a partaker, as it were, of the intimacies of their domestic society."-Lord Ripon's Address to the Royal Society of Literature, 1841. 2707 2708 Architecture of Ancient Egypt, atlas folio, with 8vo. text, 30s 1850 1850 2709 WILKINSON's popular Account of the Ancient Egyptians, 2 vols. small 8vo. many woodcuts, cloth, 10s 2710 1854 Topographical Survey of Thebes, Tapé, Thaba, or Diospolis Magna, and the Pyramids of Geezeh, by Sir Gardner Wilkinson, in 7 large maps, each 341⁄2 in. by 221, 21s 1830 These maps contain the only true and authentic information respecting the topography of the famous Thebes. The surveys were made from the actual observations of Sir Gardner Wilkinson, and were executed by him with the greatest care and accuracy. They are accompanied by explanatory and descriptive references in the margins. This survey fills up a blank, which was not supplied even by the great French work on Egypt, in which the map of Thebes is most imperfect, while this one gives the exact position of every ruin at Thebes, together with the hills and vallies about it, the whole laid down by accurate triangulation, which is extended even to the tombs of individuals and the most minute objects, and all finished upon the ground. The hill of Abd el Goorna, behind the Memnonium, alone occupied Sir Gardner Wilkinson thirty days from morning till night, and every tomb is laid down by bearings. The survey was the work of many months, and the copies of the map now offered to the public contain the latest discoveries added by Sir Gardner Wilkinson's last visit to Egypt in 1856. 2711 Fragments of the Hieratic Papyrus at Turin, containing the Names of Egyptian Kings, with the Hieratic Inscription at the back, 8vo. with the Atlas of the 11 Facsimile Hieratic Papyri of Kings, sd. only a few copies privately printed, very rare, 20s 1851 A very important publication, completing the learned works of the author, of Lepsius, Rosellini, &c.

Baber, expelled from his native country and kingdom by the Uzbeks, and for some time a wanderer without a home, ended by acquiring the empire of India, and founding a house whose shade still haunts the once imperial Delhi; and whose ultimate descendant still exists, a memorial of greatness departed, and a continuing example of the pecuniary dishonesty of the trading sovereigns of India."
